Premier Oil plc - Explorer & Producer
Analysten bezeichneten den Deal als historisch, da eine solche Einigung seit mehr als zehn Jahren nicht erfolgt sei. Es sei möglich, dass dies den Ölpreis wieder auf 60 USD/Barrel treiben kann, wie ein Analyst von Price Futures Group gegenüber Reuters mitteilte. Es gibt aber uch Zweifel hinsichtlich der Umsetzung der Reduktion, da die OPEC-Länder in der Vergangenheit immer wieder die eigenen Quoten überschritten haben. Zudem ist das neue Ziel eine erneute Anhebung der eigentlich vereinbarten Förderdeckelung von 32,5 Mio. Barrel/Tag. Und es gilt zudem als unwahrscheinlich, dass die Produktion gesenkt wird, wenn die Nachfrage weiter wächst, was nach Ansicht von Goldman Sachs der Fall ist.

Premier Oil had expected to unveil a full-scale financial restructuring by the end of September but the rescue package remains under wraps as a team of 40 lenders struggle to finalise one of the most complex debt-financing deals in the North Sea’s history.
The crucial kickstart deal is needed to secure the survival of the embattled explorer after the two-year oil price rout wiped 80pc from Premier’s value and plunged the explorer into $2.6bn debt as it works to complete the development of a major UK oil project.

Premier notes the movement of the share price over the past two days and speculation regarding secondary market activity by the Company’s debt holders. The Company has received assurances that none of its senior lenders represented on the Bank Creditors Committee have exited, or are proposing to exit, their loan position at this time (including Lloyds Bank). There have been no changes to the composition of the Bank Creditors Committee.
Discussions with the various lending groups on the Company’s proposed refinancing continue to progress towards a near term agreement of all parties. Premier retained significant cash and undrawn facilities of c.US$800 million at 30 June 2016 and continues to have access to undrawn headroom under its main facility, with the agreement of its banks.
A further update is planned in conjunction with the Company’s Trading and Operations update on November 17th.

* "Mark Wilson, analyst at Jefferies, said the receipt of a term sheet from creditors was “a positive signal” of “light at the end of the refinancing tunnel..The company must now seek agreement from its convertible and retail bondholders but Mr Wilson said the main obstacle — reaching consensus among the 40-strong main creditor group — had now been cleared”.
* “The company is benefiting from a step change in production with a significantly lower cost base while excellent progress has been made on the Catcher project,” Mr Durrant said".

Back to the black? Embattled Premier Oil gears up for debt refinancing and production update on Thursday
UK-based Premier Oil is set to reveal a boost to its oil flows and expected to announce progress on its long-awaited financial restructuring in an update this Thursday.
The embattled oil firm will provide further details about a bailout it has been working to agree with lenders for almost a year.
In a trading update in November, the firm said its refinancing package will be implemented by the end of the first quarter. It also said it should hit its production targets for the year.

On Thursday, Premier Oil is expected to announce its 2017 production targets, which could be higher than 2016 figures. The company declined to comment.
Premier was one of the oil companies to suffer most from the tumbling oil price of recent years, so reaching the final stages of the bailout will be a welcome boon to the beleaguered North Sea oil group's shareholders.
The company's fortunes took a turn for the better last year: in April, the group bulked up its UK holdings when it bought E.On's North Sea assets, and, in July, it said the Brexit-induced drop in sterling's value was a positive for the firm.
Die psychologisch wichtige Marke der market cap von GBP 500 Mio wurde übersprungen.
Wenn sich jetzt noch der Ölpreis stabilisiert und weiter zulegt, dann sind die Turbulenzen des vergangenen Jahres für die Nordsee-Ölindustrie ancient history. Let's hope so, anyway.
